## Description

I want to use markdown content from Azure DevOps wiki pages in Telerik Reporting templates. Markdown is not directly supported in Telerik Reporting, and I need to display the content within a report template.

## Solution

Telerik Reporting does not have native support for rendering markdown syntax directly. However, you can use the [HtmlTextBox]({%slug telerikreporting/designing-reports/report-structure/htmltextbox/overview%}) report item to display HTML content, which supports a limited set of HTML tags and CSS attributes. Follow these steps:

1. Use an external markdown-to-HTML converter to transform your markdown content from Azure DevOps wiki into HTML format.
1. Pass the converted HTML content to the HtmlTextBox report item in your Telerik Reporting template.
1. Ensure that the HTML content uses only the supported tags and CSS attributes. Unsupported tags will not be rendered.

Refer to [Styling and Formatting the HtmlTextBox Report Item]({%slug htmltextbox_formatting_and_styling%}) for a list of supported HTML tags and CSS attributes.
